Mike, hi.  That does look like the same bug and the fix looks like what I
was asking for (make it work like the vanilla Import).  Unfortunately I
tried loading both the current 1.2 milestone and the most recent build and
in both cases I could not load the current version of m2e-egit.  Got a
series of dependency errors.  Are there updated connectors that go with
this build of m2e?  Oh -- and should the fix be in the current milestone
build?

Thanks,
Sean
